Was in town visiting and now will make the time to come and get more Chocolate! Service was straightforward as you mostly select the Candy yourself, yet the Chocolate must be served by a Worker.

They also had a fridge with various sugary sodas and additional shelving with box and bar candies.

This review needs updating. I am now confident in saying that these ice cream bars ARE the best in…read morethe world and would love to be proven wrong (hey, IF a better ice cream bar exists it would have to be mind-blowingly good). It starts by them using quality ingredients. They use Marianne's vanilla ice cream, and Valrhona chocolate (a French chocolate used by gourmet chefs). You can choose milk chocolate or dark. They have a bunch of options for what you can include in your bar, including chopped almonds, caramel, and marshmallow. My favorite is #4: dark chocolate with caramel and marshmallow. It is insanely good. After each bite I am thinking "oh my god this is good." Frankly I am glad it is in Santa Cruz (and not in my town) or I might be 50 lbs heavier. I just had one yesterday and the experience is still vivid. Oh, and their chocolates (which also use Valrhona chocolate) are also damn good. And if you like brownies they've got you covered too. The guys running this place could not be nicer, which makes this place a joy to visit. This is really an exceptional place to come to and we are lucky to have it in our area. I am now a regular almost every time I am in Santa Cruz (and I come here often).

A bit on the pricey side for sure, but holy cow was it delicious! My wife and I both had to be careful not to eat it all in one go. We wanted to spread out the joy of eating it. Incredible chocolate, local business, somewhat pricey. Definitely worth checking out!

Don't let the size fool you though, because the food is doing a lot. I ordered three things: Nashville portobello sandwich - meaty, bold, and tangy. Every bite delivered. 8.5/10 Grilled cheese - buttery and herbaceous, with a tomato jam that ties the whole thing together perfectly. Honestly flawless. 10/10 Empanada - flaky, rich, and deeply umami. The kind of thing you keep thinking about after. 9/10 And I have been thinking about all of it since I left. Reasonably priced, friendly staff, and food that genuinely surprises you. My only note is that seating is limited, so just be prepared for that, but it's a small gripe for a spot this good. Will absolutely be back.

Mediocre chocolate priced for royalty…read more Stopped here with a young child a few months ago; man behind the counter was visibly impatient while we decided, even though we were the only customers. Left with a small box of chocolates priced at $75, plus a seemingly mandatory tip for the gruff worker who collected the pieces from the display case. Chocolates were of mixed quality (this is no doubt subjective, but I've sampled many chocolatiers); certainly not special enough to justify the extravagant premium. I get that running a small business is really challenging, but the price to quality ratio was not justifiable.
